    Considered Both Products
    PostgreSQL Global Development Group
    Chose PostgreSQL
    1. MySQL - doesn't have transactional support for schema migrations, and has a more restrictive license
    2. DB2 - not free
    3. SQLite - doesn't have full foreign key constraint support

    Chose PostgreSQL
    A free corporate professional product. Who does not want to have such a thing, we hesitated because we did not know the product before and frankly we did not want it at first. But when we give it a chance, it has been running smoothly for years.

    Chose SQLite
    I think there is no real competition between them.
    In "SQLite" you can hear "light" when you don't need to store a big amount of data and when you need something easy to deploy, SQLite is a good choice, I didn't find those qualities in other database systems I knew.
